Abstract (en)

A magnetically animated toy (1) is described which comprises one or more puppets (2i) and a fixed structure (6); permanent magnets (3, 3a, 4, 5) are fixed to the puppets (2i), and fixed permanent magnets (12, 13) and permanent magnets (18, 19) which are moved by drive means (7) are attached in suitable positions to the fixed structure (6): the interaction between the magnets attached to the said structure and those fixed to the puppets (2i) creates the illusion of bringing these puppets to life. <IMAGE>
